Expect the likes of collard greens, beans, cornmeal in many forms, along with crispy catfish, pork and tender fried chicken. The term ‘soul food’ first appeared in the 1960s, when ‘soul’ was a word used to describe African-American culture.”

“Flavourful food and great big portions are what you get at Kathryn’s Soul, a restaurant in Chicago French Market.
